On the whole I like the Hush series. They're good-looking figures. However, they're pretty immobile. I know this, so I'm not really complaining, just describing.
The Hush Batman is well-muscled, something the thirteen-year-old commented on--she thinks Batman ought to be a little slimmer, I suppose because of the martial-artist thing. He bends at the elbows, knees, hips and shoulders; the shoulders don't extend out. The waist does not turn. The head turns and can be cocked at various angles. He can sit somewhat, and he stands easily.
He's a decent-looking figure, definitely has a presence; he has the grey and blue costume, and the kids approve of the cape.
He was intended as a replacement for the DC Universe Batman, who's reasonably mobile but permanently hunched over--he really can't do anything but crouch on rooftops, lurking, and the kids never seemed to play with him at all. We'll have to see whether this guy gets any more action.
